ATI Phos Stop 1.000ml / 650g (2520004)

ATI® Phos Stop is a highly effective iron-based adsorbent (GFO) that primarily removes phosphate, but also silicate, organic compounds and heavy metals such as copper from the water. Excessive phosphate and silicate levels in reef aquariums are one of the main causes of unwanted algae and degenerating or dying corals. ATI® Phos Stop is ideal for use in reef aquariums because it quickly absorbs the unwanted substances and prevents them from being released into the aquarium water, even after extended use. With Phos Stop, you achieve noticeably improved water quality, thus preventing unwanted algal infestations.
